Chapter 1662: Hope
When Liu Jing heard his eldest son's crying, he felt extremely cold.
Because... he knows very well.
Once you and your eldest son go out to sea, it means that the whole family will migrate.
After all... Although the second son has no fame and no official position, he is not a good man. If he stays in the capital, he will cause trouble if he causes trouble and his father and brother are not around, he will cause trouble. At that time, he really doesn't know how to write the word "death".
Therefore... there is no other way out except for leaving with the whole family.
Liu Jing felt even more uncomfortable when he thought of this than death.
In Beijing, there are many people like Liu Jing.
Almost every family has people dejected.
The vast ships have been moored in Tianjin Port.
Countless imperial guards and horses had to take the family with their families and set out in batches first.
The imperial guards of the Ming Dynasty directly transferred eight guards and more than 60,000 people, and even more, including family members, there were countless.
The establishment of the standing army was originally intended to replace the previous Beijing camp and the imperial guards. Now that the emperor took the people away, it will also reduce the pressure on the new policy of the standing army system in the future.
After all... there are so many Qiu Ba, you can't just say that you can't lay off.
But now, the imperial guards and some of the Beijing camps were directly transferred to the Golden Continent garrison, which caused complaints.
Fortunately, the First Army had already begun to take over the defense of the capital, and the Emperor personally took the people away. Although there were complaints everywhere, no one could make any trouble.
The emperor took out the silver first and rewarded the guards who accompanied him, and the ships set out immediately.
It has been a long time since the dock of Tianjin Guard. Countless sea ships have been requisitioned, and dozens of ships set off every day. People bid farewell to each other at the dock, which makes the dock a little more sad.
Emperor Hongzhi also arrived at Tianjin Wei, surrounded by his ministers.
Emperor Zhu Houzhao, Cabinet Grand Secretary Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and Fang Jifan accompanied him here to see him off.
Xie Qian, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, also wanted to follow him. Xie Qian's performance was very calm. In fact, most of his tribesmen went to Luzon. This time... he followed the emperor alone to the Golden Continent with Emperor Hongzhi, and he didn't seem surprised.
Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan accompanied Emperor Hongzhi to the dock.
Emperor Hongzhi was particularly calm on his face.
He looked at the countless ships moored in the harbor, couldn't help but stroke his beard and said to a large ship: "Is this ship my ride?"
Fang Jifan said, "Yes, Emperor, this is the new King of Slaughter in the World created by Ningbo Navy. Among the Navy, it can be called the King of Slaughter in the World. All of them are the latest big ships. This ship has now replaced the old King of Slaughter in the World. It is called the Ningbo Navy flagship. Emperor, and people in the sea say that King of Slaughter in the World can drive away evil spirits and be afraid of wind and waves."
Emperor Hongzhi nodded, smiled and said, "The boatman is not sure about his life and death, and he wants this meaning..."
The endless stream of horses, ceremonial guards, eunuchs, and guards have begun to board the ship one after another. Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "I heard that sailing eastward will be faster to reach the Golden Continent, why should I go west?"
"It is safe to travel west. There are ports along the way and you can also replenish supplies at any time. It is slower, but it is for the sake of the safety of the emperor." Fang Jifan replied.
He was a little reluctant to leave, and kept looking at Emperor Hongzhi with his eyes open. He couldn't help feeling a little sad, but he still barely cheered up and tried his best to make himself answer.
Zhu Houzhao's face looked very bad. He seemed to realize that he seemed to say goodbye to his father.
From then on, he didn't know when he would be able to reunite. He felt like he realized it and suddenly his eyes turned red.
Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "I heard that those who were wandering on the sea in the past were called the people, the most humble, because the people were like duckweed and had no roots! But later, the Ming Dynasty built ships and went to sea to build seas. Although the risks were great, they often made great profits after one trip. Therefore, even good families were proud to take risks in the sea. Today... I will be a Hui people, and I will see how vast the world is, and how good the world is, and assist the emperor well. The emperor is always a little anxious and tie him up to me."
Fang Jifan immediately said: "Your Majesty the Emperor is extremely wise. It is a blessing for the son to serve him for three lives. The emperor does not need to worry."
Emperor Hongzhi looked back at Zhu Houzhao and couldn't help but touch his shoulder: "Why are your eyes red?"
Zhu Houzhao could no longer hold it back and suddenly choked up and said, "Father...father...or, I, the emperor, won't do it."
Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "You are still like a child, and your ancestors are born. How could you not do it if you want to do it? Alas... I still remember what you looked like when you were a child..."
Emperor Hongzhi felt that his eyes were blurred and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.
After a pause, he cheered up and tried hard to smile, saying, "Don't say these childish words again... I am going to see my grandson, in the future... in the future, you, my father and son will still meet each other. I know you, you have learned riding and shooting since childhood, you are familiar with the army, you have grown up, you have learned a lot of things, you have your strategy in your heart. In the past, I always felt that you were idle and you were so happy about it, but now... I am looking forward to one day, I can show you all what you learned when you were young and see if you are better than me. Every generation has its own affairs, I... have tried my best. Now my expectations and the welfare of the soldiers, civilians and the people of the world have been entrusted to you...!"
Speaking of this, Emperor Hongzhi suddenly had a tense face and looked stern, staring at Zhu Houzhao, and shouted sternly: "Zhu Houzhao..."
"Son... I'm here..." Zhu Houzhao responded subconsciously.
Emperor Hongzhi continued: "Let the people of the world see how capable you, Zhu Houzhao, let them know that you, are the emperor, not because you inherit the foundation of your ancestors, but because... you are stronger than others, whether you want to be the Emperor of Qin or the Wu of Han, you need to remember that if the people of the world can receive your favor, does the emperor rely solely on your strength? This is nonsense. The emperor gives favors to the people of the world, do you understand what I mean?"
"My son...My son understands." Zhu Houzhao felt very sad, but nodded desperately.
At this time, Emperor Hongzhi's face became gentle again: "Your mother, I wanted to follow me, but I didn't allow her to go. Woman... How could she bear the bumpy pain? She must cry when she stays here. It's very bitter. You are a son of man and serve a good life. And the Empress Dowager... I need to ask about my well-being every day. I... I am afraid that I will never meet the Empress Dowager again in this life. Yesterday... I saw her, and she heard that I was going to the Golden State, and her complexion was much worse. You are a great-grandson, and I will entrust the Empress Dowager to you."
immediately……
Emperor Hongzhi laughed heartily: "Don't cry, like a woman, I... will come back, you all wait for me."
He said, waved his hand: "Let's go, remember what I said."
He did not look back, and walked up to the pier under Xiao Jing and others' entourage.
Zhu Houzhao stood still, but just stared at the back of Emperor Hongzhi.
The back was gradually moving away, and Zhu Houshi stared at the sea breeze for a long time.
At this time, he began to slowly understand his father's thoughts.
Zhu Houzhao turned around, glanced at Fang Jifan, and said with a cautious expression: "Lao Fang, in the future, I will definitely bring my father back."
Fang Jifan also nodded seriously and said, "I will go with Your Majesty at that time."
Zhu Houzhao said: "But now... we still have a lot to do."
Fang Jifan nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, there are still many things. You have to do everything properly so that the emperor's efforts will be less than vain."
Zhu Houzhao said with a tense face: "Then now, I can't wait for a moment. Let's go back to Beijing quickly and greet the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager first."
He turned around and refused to look back at the new world on the bay.
Now... Zhu Houzhao needs to find money.
…………
When he returned to the capital, Zhu Houzhao first met the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Zhang. Then he went to Fengtian Hall and joined Fang Jifan to summon the Hou of Shouning and Jianchang Bo.
The Zhang brothers have long been worth a lot of money with their income in the Golden Continent.
The most important thing is that these two brothers are very strange. The money they earned is neither used to buy stocks nor used to buy stocks. They even save it, and even refuse to buy the house.
When the Zhang brothers arrived at Fengtian Hall, they were frowning and looked uneasy.
It was a good thing that the new emperor ascended the throne and was his nephew.
But the problem is that in their hearts, their nephew is not a good person!
When the two brothers arrived at Fengtian Hall, they saw Zhu Houzhao and were busy ceremonies.
Zhu Houzhao looked at them kindly and said, "You don't have to be too polite for two uncles. They are all their own family members. Now that I have ascended the throne, I haven't had a good chat with you. I took time today and specially invited you to come. Our family will close the door and chat with you."
Zhang Heling suddenly looked even more ugly and felt creepy all over.
So he said with great trepidation: "After all, the minister is just a minister, and there is a difference between the king and the minister..."
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand with a smile: "This is what he said to outsiders. Lao Fang, look at my two uncles, they seem to have no feelings for me."
Fang Jifan laughed and said, "Your Majesty, the two uncles are actually with You. Your Majesty are uncles and nephews. People say that nephews are like uncles and their relationships should be intimate. This is the kind of close relative who breaks the bones and tendons."
Zhang Heling was confused when he heard the words in the front, but Zhang Heling understood the words in the back...
You, the dog guy named Fang, do you want to instigate Your Majesty to break our bones?
